Title: New Compie!
Post by: Timu Sumisu on 2013-01-02 16:06:23

Finished building most recent PC. Not the greatest pics, but had no tripod, nor decent light setup. Maybe another time.
No overclocks yet.

i5-3570k
GTX-670
32GB Gskill RAM
MSI Mpower motherboard
360GB solid state
4.5TB hdd

Clock speed on that 3570k? :D

I could only get mine to 4.5ghz :( but i'll take a 1.1ghz overclock :D

but 32GB of RAM, what on earth are you rendering? haha granted it was only a smoke back i did for Mayo, But the max i consumed was 10GB with 200 resolution and 4 High resolution (hopefully you know what that means since it was beyond greek to me haha)

And Timu, wouldn't you benefit more from having a workstation card over a normal GPU? My dad just got a Tesla to use with his CAD, and it beats the piss out of my 660 ti (also was damn near 10 times the price)

No overclocks yet, so cpu is still at 3.4 - I tested out the mpower's ocGenie for 4.2.

As to the quadro card... I dont feel like doubling the cost of my computer :P. I don't do that much 3D work atm. Most of the part selection was based on sales (32gb ram for 110$). I've also actually been gaming for once! Christmas break is great for that. Most of my time lately is spent on programming/work/school, thus so long as the machine is snappy, quiet, and cool, I'm happy.

P.S. Stylish too!

I'll say, screw those OC wizards, my board gave me a 4.1ghz after upping the BLK (which puts unneeded stress on the Mobo and my PCI-E devices) manual tuning i hit 4.5ghz @ 1.3v Could probably get more out of it, But ivy after 1.3v gets really hot really quick. and i like my CPU :D

But thats awesome. glad to hear you have some time to do personal things. If you want some help OC'ing lemme know, I ish OC master :D

Also, i'll have to pop on MSN/skype (have they became one yet?) i have a request of you my good man, I need your madd skyllz

My oh my, there is always boss over boss...
Just when I burned down my laptop.... :oops: seems that modeling Junon (pushing >3m polys, not even a third completed) brings bad luck...
I'm just wondering, seems like you have triple SLI, are you going to fill those slots up?
Then you have some nice CUDA rendering power...you might need to put a reactor next to it though... :evil:

How fast can it run tic-tac-toe?

It can play tic-tac-toe faster than you DLPB!

As to sli? I do believe the board can take up to three. I've just got the one card in it at the moment, and am not sure how I'd like to fill those slots. I like keeping it all watercooled, and I also like it being near silent/silent.
